Chapter 605 – The 7th Level! (1/2)
A lightning pool of lightning that stretched endlessly into the distance stood right before Yang Ye. Why was it called a lightning pool? Because the pool was actually covered in bolts of lightning. Moreover, the sky above the pool was densely covered in dark clouds and countless bolts of lightning were raining down incessantly into the pool.
Yang Ye was able to faintly notice a few colossi swimming through the pool, and when he focused his gaze over, he noticed that those colossi were actually divine gold dragons.
They’re tempering their bodies with heavenly lightning? Yang Ye pondered deeply for a moment, and then he gazed at the Violetcloud Lightning. The Violetcloud Lightning was a Natural Treasure, and Yang Ye hadn’t seen it fear any other living being besides the tiny vortex. So, it made him wonder if there was some sort of terrifying existence within the pool, or perhaps a Natural Treasure that was superior to the Violetcloud Lightning existed within the pool?
“The Heavenly Lightning Pool consists of a total of 9 levels, the lower you go, the stronger the lightning within it would be. Of course, the benefits would be greater as well. The amount of levels you can descend to will depend on your own ability. Right, don’t blame me for not warning you about this. Even though you can obtain the Divine Dragon Armor by arriving at the 6th level, you’re only a human, so heading to the 6th level would be no different than giving your life away!” said the Dragon Emperor in an indifferent tone.
Yang Ye glanced at the Dragon Emperor and said, “Why use such methods to provoke me? Actually, there isn’t any deep enmity between me and your clan, so why make it like we’re both such terrible enemies? That isn’t beneficial to both of us, isn’t it?”
“There is little common ground for understanding between people of different paths!” The Dragon Emperor spoke indifferently, “There’s no need to waste your breath. Go on down!”
Yang Ye shrugged, and he was just about to head down when the Dragon Emperor spoke abruptly. “Don’t bring that spatial mink with you!”
The violet mink immediately glared angrily at the Dragon Emperor while violet light flickered on her little claws. The corners of the Dragon Emperor’s mouth twitched when he witnessed this, and he said, “The physical body of Spatial Minks isn’t strong. She is utterly incapable of enduring the heavenly lightning in the pool. Understand?”
Yang Ye rubbed the little fellow’s head and said, “Thank you for the warning, but I have my own methods.” Yang Ye held the violet mink in his arms as he leaped down into the pool.
A middle aged man appeared in front of the Dragon Emperor when Yang Ye’s figure descended into the pool.
“He’s the Sword Emperor, Yang Ye, who killed my son?” The middle aged man spoke in a deep voice. His gaze was gloomy, ghastly, and surged with killing intent.
The Dragon Emperor nodded and said, “I know that you want to take revenge. I want the same as well. After all, when has our Divine Gold Dragon Clan suffered such a humiliation? However, I’m warning you not to act against him at all, otherwise no one will be able to save you!”
“I won’t act rashly!” said the middle aged man.
The Dragon Emperor nodded and said, “I’ve got in touch with the Hallowed Grounds, and they’ve decided to carry out a plan to annihilate that Half-Saint. So, it won’t be long before you’ll be able to kill him yourself. Hmph! At that time, let me see how the Demon Emperor will continue leading our demon race. It has been almost 10,000 years now. It’s time for the demon race to have a new leader!”
A wisp of delight flashed through the middle aged man’s eyes, “The Hallowed Grounds has decided?”
The Dragon Emperor nodded and said, “Yang Ye killed Zuo Dengfeng who was ranked at the 10th position amongst the younger generation of the Hallowed Grounds, and that made the Hallowed Grounds feel threatened. Because they refuse to allow another Unfettered One to appear in the continent. Coupled with the fact that Yang Ye’s master heavily injured a Monarch Realm expert of the Hallowed Grounds. How could the Hallowed Grounds endure all of that? So, Yang Ye and that Half-Saint are finished!”
The middle aged man suddenly asked, “Will our Divine Gold Dragon Clan be partic.i.p.ating in the plan?”
The Dragon Emperor nodded.
The middle aged man fell silent. After all, it would be great if the plan succeeded, but if it failed, then the Divine Gold Dragon Clan would be doomed!
The Dragon Emperor seemed to be aware of the middle aged man’s concerns and said, “Don’t worry, it will absolutely not fail. After all, it isn’t just us who want them dead, there’s the Exalted Han Empire as well. Both the Exalted Han Empire and the Hallowed Grounds won’t hold back this time because they don’t want to have two extraordinary enemies in the future!”
The middle aged man took a deep breath when he heard this, and then he suddenly looked down at the pool of lightning and said, “How many levels do you think that he’ll be able to descend to?”
The Dragon Emperor pondered deeply for a moment before he said, “The 5th level!”
The middle aged man’s eyelids twitched as he said, “He’s only a human, yet he can actually descend to the 5th level?” The middle aged man was very shocked because the most dazzling geniuses of the Divine Gold Dragon Clan were only able to descend to the 6th level. Moreover, the reason they were able to descend to the 6th level was because the dragon race was born with a physical defense that far surpa.s.sed other demon beasts!
But Yang Ye was just a human. So, the middle aged man wondered how Y Ye’s physical body could possibly compare to the physical body of a dragon!
The Dragon Emperor said, “Don’t underestimate him. He really is practically invincible amongst the Exalt Realm experts of the entire continent. Perhaps only An Nanjing can truly fight him.”
“Then that’s even more reason to kill him!” said the middle aged man.
The Dragon Emperor nodded lightly and said, “Let’s watch and see. Both he and his master humiliated my clan today, and I’ll definitely wash this humiliation away with the blood of his entire family!”
The middle aged man suddenly said, “What if he descends to the 7th level?”
“Is that even possible?” The Dragon Emperor laughed with ridicule, and then his figure vanished on the spot.
The middle aged man laughed with ridicule because he felt that his words were quite laughable. Because not a single Exalt Rank divine gold dragon had been able to descend to the 7th level in the last 10,000 years. Divine gold dragons at the Monarch Rank could descend to the 7th level, but they couldn’t do so because Monarch Rank experts were prohibited from entering the Heavenly Lightning Pool. Those who disobeyed this restriction would be cursed by the ancestor of the Divine Dragon Clan.
